The 2026/27 season once again brings two major national competitions for Petts Wood & Holmesdale, as we proudly take our place in both the Emirates FA Cup and the Isuzu FA Vase.

Our FA Cup campaign begins in the Extra‑Preliminary Round on Saturday 8 August 2026, with the Final set for Saturday 22 May 2027 beneath the Wembley arch. Petts Wood & Holmesdale join all 18 SCEFL Premier Division clubs in this year’s competition, including newcomers AFC Greenwich Borough and SE Dons. We enter at the Extra‑Preliminary stage alongside the rest of the division.

The draw for the opening FA Cup rounds will be announced on Friday 3 July, when we’ll discover our first opponents in the world’s most iconic cup competition.

Shortly after, our attention turns to the Isuzu FA Vase, where our campaign begins in the First Round Qualifying on Saturday 29 August 2026. The road to Wembley for Vase hopefuls will conclude with the Final on Sunday 25 April 2027.
